Asaki Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 I tested it before I bought it lol. ...yeah, I don't think they'd be too happy if I told them I was just making sure it was loud enough to hear over noisy machinery... ¬_¬ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickR Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Found 2 NES Advantage sticks for $5 each, and a Genesis 6 button controller (with a Samsung logo?!?) for $2 at GW today. Everything works fine, except for button A on one of the Advantages. I hopefully can fix that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickR Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 They also had a 3 button Genesis controller (with the same Samsung logo), but it was $4 and I wasn't sure if this would actually work with a Genesis (it does). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the.golden.ax Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Interesting. I'd love to know what that was for as well. I don't remember Samsung doing any co-branded sega stuff. Worth picking up the other as well as those seem quite rare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shadow460 Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 I grabbed a 5200 lot from a Craigslist seller. It was kinda pricey, but I got it anyway. Gorf CIB RS Baseball, box and cart Q Bert box and cart Star Trek box and cart Countermeasure CIB Ms Pac Man box and instructions only Defender box and instructions only Dreadnaught Factor box only Star Wars Arcade box only Blueprint loose cart It had a few loose commons, too. Most of the boxes look rough and were flattened, but I was able to fold them out and use them for their intended purpose. I had loose copies of Ms Pac Man and Defender, so now they're CIB. All the carts I got today work. The only Ms Pac Man cart I have doesn't, so I'll have to get one the next time I'm on the hunt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desfeek Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 http://imageshack.us.../dsc02440yo.jpg Picked this up today. Nothing remarkable, but I did a double take at the price tag: http://imageshack.us.../dsc02442bt.jpg Had to have been a mistake. Either a computer or human error. The guy at the counter was even a little mad at me, as if fishing the disc out of the drawers and ringing me up was more trouble than it was worth. Just my two cents.

+thegoldenband Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Spent the week in Indiana, and had some nice finds at a flea market there: Goldstar 3DO with one loose game & 6-button controller - $15 six Atari games (including Trick Shot, Keystone Kapers, blue label Pitfall) - $1 each NES Thunderbirds, WURM - $3 each NES Laser Invasion - $1.66 SNES Seaquest DSV, Genesis Justice League Task Force - $0.75 each (though I also had to buy two sports games to get the 4 for $3 price) And my fiancée picked up Duke Nukem: Time to Kill for PlayStation for the equivalent of about 10 cents. I had low expectations for the GoldStar 3DO, but it reads original discs and burns quite well! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Popp Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Goldstar 3DO with one loose game & 6-button controller - $15 Lucky find, I'm in the hunt for a "bargain" 3DO. Where in Indiana where you? I'm in SW Ohio, and I'm always looking for new flea markets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BA-ZING Same type of thing happened to me but it was at Wal-Mart about 10 years ago. I bought some Power of the Jedi figures and they all rang up for .05 cents each (I think they were 6.99 back then). Umm, I left with a shopping cart full and needless to say I was able to make a few bucks off of them. I wasn't given any stinkeye or anything like that. The cashier just laughed and told me I was one of the luckiest guys he knew. He rang them all up (for like a total of $5 or so - yes I bought about 100) and wished me a very good day.

+thegoldenband Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Lucky find, I'm in the hunt for a "bargain" 3DO. Where in Indiana where you? I'm in SW Ohio, and I'm always looking for new flea markets. I was in Indianapolis, at the Stewart Promotions flea market at the fairgrounds. It was medium-sized -- not as huge as Stormville in NY, not as small as a little Podunk flea market -- which made it a nice place to spend a couple hours. The prices were generally quite reasonable, except for the guy who wanted five bucks each for PlayStation commons -- and even he had a couple items worth buying. I had just given my little brother my old FZ-1, but the GoldStar reads burns so much better, he ended up taking that instead! I'd given him some original games too, of course, but I don't see him spending $1500 for a copy of Eye of Typhoon, even if he could find one. Then again I don't see myself doing that either.

I think there is a federal law in the books that they have to give you the price as marked on the item. What stores are not responsible for are mistakes in ads, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here in Tennessee they refuse all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asaki Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 The only times I've had that happen, the cashier had a very "Not my fault, so I don't care." attitude. Never found anything that cheap before, though, just that $8 Gunstar Heroes that one time at Play'n'Trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the.golden.ax Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Had a horrible and wonderful day at goodwill. I had two doctors appointments, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. I thought I'd hit goodwill while I waited for my appointment. I get a bunch of good stuff together and then go to the check out... the credit card machine was down. We ended up wasting time going and getting cash, and because I was a half hour late for my Doctor, I had to wait an hour and a half to be told, I wouldn't be seen for another WEEK. Thanks Goodwill. At least I got good stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
